Great, I thought something was left out. Sorry about that.. Also have Dragan meet up with the sneasels and then will give the report.. I will go through Raders exploration and post soon..

Lol, this was a good one.. Also let's finish with the trial soon, else the storyline is going to get totally mucked up.. I will get the Sky, Magic and Water Kingdom story updated till needed and then we will have to wait for the Land to catch up.. After that the Permafrost and Underdark will be able to join in..

He- STOP EATING ALL THE CAKES... Fatman(My snorlax) needs his cakes.. With a big helping of sanity on the side.. So he is gonna be stealing yours, chrisxcross.. Bye..

Hey welcome! Have a cake.. Don't listen to SHIA with her lies and pies and what not.. Also my snorlax is here to take his customary donation of sanity.. Thanks.. Cya..

[Nessie-Gyarados] Nessie didn't say anything, and just moved away, waiting for the trial to go on. She was still looking at the Queen. I can't believe how powerless she thinks she is. All she needs to do is speak to the people. They all prefer her over Shidew anyway. I guess it can't be helped. I wonder how my people are doing.... She slowly drifted away, thinking about her tribe and their life in the ocean. Peacekeepers The peacekeepers from the water kingdom met with the tribe and were heading for the Land Kingdom, when they were interrupted by a messenger Wingull. When it told them of the incidents at the Magic Kingdom, the Gyarados' roared in anger. "This is outrageous. How can he do that? Does he want to fight?" All of these could be heard among the tribe. Even the peacekeepers were troubled by it. They decided it would be better to head to the Magic Kingdom first, and then make their way to the Land Kingdom. Sky Kingdom The Gengar created a hole, a rift in space, right in front of itself. The rift widened and was aligned in the path of the beam, harmlessly allowing it to enter a different dimension. After that another hole opened right behind Azauqyar, and the golden light from the beam could be seen coming from it. The beam shot out from the hole with bursting energy and went straight for the old god. A trick as simple as this was avoided by Azauqyar without much effort, however his Thunderwave was sent off in all directions, hitting Stratos and Alucard both. The dragon simply moved out of the way and the beam went straight, hitting the rampaging Lucario, who was sent flying towards the protective shield built by the mages of the White Crescent. This caused Aria to mistime her Aura Sphere, which hit the ground, creating an explosion and a large dust cloud, entrapped within the spherical shield. Aria had been hurt by the Hyper Beam and grew more violent. She jumped straight for the emerald dragon, preparing to attack it with multiple Ice Punches.

Oh right, my bad.. But the point is you can still go through with it..

Actually the Magic Kingdom scouts are in the Rhyhorn Savannah, so you can have the underdark conquer the Aggron Hills.

I have some trades pending already, which I can finally get done.. Will try to help out with yours after that.. I need to breed one if you have the patience.. I probably only will do it after I finish episode 15 though..

As far as I can tell, all storylines are up to date, but in case I have missed something, or someone is left out, please let me know.. I will update their storyline ASAP..

[Alucard-Gengar], [syni-Haunter] & [Aria-Lucario] So it seems that it will be a trial by combat. Since it is me against Syni, I shouldn't have a problem. I can just mega evolve and defeat her. Alucard was confident of winning. Syni was thinking back to the talk with Alucard in the passage. She had stolen the mega stone from him, and had gotten it cursed. Then when she sneaked back from the shadows, she had crashed into the spirit and replaced the rock with her cursed stone. She just hoped that he had not realised what she had done. The minute he starts his transformation I need to vanish. If I fail, it is all over for me. The rage will first destroy me since it will be aligned with his intentions, and only then make him attack everybody else. "Fine then. Let's get it started shall we." She waited for Alucard to take out his Mega stone, but it seemed that he wasn't going to. He was watching her wearily as they circled around each other. They both attacked each other with Psychic, having a battle of the minds. Alucard was winning rather easily, or so he thought. She put up a mental barrier and Alucard could not penetrate it. Her defence was astounding him. The more he pushed the more he realised that she would not let him through. The witch is strong, I'll give her that, but she will break. He attempted to hit her with a shadow ball, but she dodged it. I will need to force him. I guess it is time for me to evolve. I have put it off for way too long anyways. Syni started pulsating with energy, and a dark mist started swirling around her. It went faster and faster, till finally she had achieved her final form of Gengar. "I guess we are evenly matched now, Alucard. Well actually, no. I am far stronger than you." She whispered, just so that the ghost could hear it. Alucard knew that he had been played. He could feel the aura surrounding Syni. Something evil was protecting her. "You leave me no choice it seems, wraith. I must expose you for what you truly are." He pulled out his Mega stone and began his transformation. The minute he began, a horrible aura enveloped him. Severe pain was shooting through his being, almost as if he were alive. He started screaming, a horrible wailing. Almost like the sound of millions of tortured souls of Hell. His body grew in size. Changing far too much for it to be a normal Mega evolution. The dark aura around him materialised and enveloped his form. "No, no, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO........." Everything stopped. In his place, stood a giant mega gengar. It was about three times the size of a regular one, and pitch black with blood red eyes. The aura around it was like a black veil resonating pure evil. The very same evil that resonated within Aria's mega stone. It throbbed, almost like a heart. It took complete control of her and she jumped out of the crowd and into the middle of the field, mega evolving mid jump. Syni was standing in front of the gengar, unafraid. Rather it seemed she was laughing. "My work here is done." The minute Aria landed, ready to attack, Syni created a hole in space. She slipped through it and sealed it. The two crazed Mega Pokemon attacked the people watching. Aura Spheres and Shadow Balls were flying all across the grounds. Some hit the people. Other's flew off into the distance. It seemed that both Pokemon had lost control and were attacking wildly. [Nessie-Gyarados] Nessie had a sinking feeling. It seems that the Judge will not give me a fair trial. That bastard Shidew didn't even think about the peace treaty. All he said was he wanted to speak with the Sky Kingdom and not us. Without even questioning him, this so called 'Judge' is already accusing me of causing the rioting. "It seems you are already blaming me for the misfortune of the rioting, even when I clearly had surrendered wilfully. As for your words about that greedy, little, gem hoarder. He did not even bother with the peace treaty. He simply said he wanted to speak with King Kruga and not my 'pacifist' group. Now maybe you understand why I considered that water gem to be an insult. He thinks his little treasure could increase the Lord's power? The fool doesn't even know the true extent of Lord Rain's strength. It was his actions and arrogance that enraged me. My actions after that were merely offering to the people the choice that the King denied them. If you think of it as a tantrum then so be it." The venom and rage was building in Nessie. She turned to look at Queen Crystal. "I had come here with the hopes of being given a great number of men to help with our mission. It seems that your wish for peace is nothing more than a farce. It seems that not only is your King power crazed and war hungry, even your so called upholder of justice is nothing more than a little pawn in your King's hand. She talks about me causing a commotion. Did she even plan on giving me a fair trial, or is this merely a mockery to appease the citizens? I do not care. I have seen the face of your King and the 'Justice' that is served in this land. I have failed my mission. That was the only thing that had mattered. Do what you will." She knew she would probably be arrested again. [brandon-Cloyster] Brandon and his forces started the move forward. We haven't been in a real war so far, yet our king wishes to take war to others. Our troops need to be prepared. Brandon rushed towards where the King was. "Sire, I have a suggestion. Considering the amount of new blood among our ranks and the fact that even the veterans have not seen a real battle for a while, should I hold skirmishes between the various divisions? That way not only will the army become stronger, they will also be able to work together better."

[syni-Haunter] She knew if she was going to survive she would have to play things coolly. She followed the Hydreigon and went forward. She could feel all eyes on her. She went and stood in the middle of it all. "My Lord, he is evil. Even in his final moment he wishes to harm me. He had sworn to take his revenge on me if I should betray him, and now he is trying to do that by dragging me into this, with his crazy stories." She looked away and tried her best to act convincingly. [Alucard-Gengar] Alucard saw her now. The trickster, he thought. Even now it seems that she will not give up the facade. I guess this will have to result in a trial by combat. I should prepare myself for it. "Only you can decide who is truthful sir." With that Alucard stood silent. Staring at all those around him. ((@Darvan: Do not make aria attack.. You can make the thing toy with her though..))

So once the scene at the Sky Kingdom is set, I will be making a post.. unfortunately it is late and I have early morning stuff to do.. So I may take a while to post.. Till then please don't post anything happening at the sky kingdom.. Even the other kingdoms should not go too far ahead.. Magic kingdom should finish the trial. Water doesn't have much going right now. I guess they can prepare for the meeting of the kings that has been requested, and start the exploration for the blue orb. askrain Land is being handled by Ty anyway so I guess I don't need to get into that. @Rain just mention that the Gyarados from the water kingdom will have sent word ahead of success and is on its way with the group. The explorers for magic are again with Ty. The Ice Kingdom can get started with their journey west. I still don't know what the Underdark is doing, but I think Ty can introduce someone here.

[Alucard-Gengar] Alucard let out a sigh of relief. "What you have accused me of is falsehood. I have done so such things. Ulkina chose to travel with me. She chose me as her brother. I can already guess why you think I am a criminal. I have been accused of treachery by Syni the Haunter, but the truth is that she is the one pulling the strings. When we had first come to the city, King Kruga offered us a place in his army. I had briefly considered it, but she go into an argument with him and let off a thunderbolt at him. The very one which paralysed him in his final battle. After that not much of interest happened till I was speaking with Lord Eric. Syni dragged me away from the Lord and begged me not to say a word about the incident with the King. She said that the guards wanted to punish me because of my antics. Little did I know, she hypnotised me and had me hide in the cave where I was found. I only realised her plot now, when you accused me of threatening her. I blindly trusted her due to her frail act, but she is the mastermind behind this. My Lord, give me a chance to face my true accuser."

Alucard's Trial "I plead not guilty." Alucard was staring the Salamence in it's face, knowing what he had to do. It is the only way. The only possible way they will hear me out. He turned to look at the Emerald God. "Lord, you are being tricked. We all are. Please hear me out." I can only hope that the Sky dragon will believe me. If not, then I will have to demand a trial by combat.

The water kingdom is a success, the Land will help once they can rebuild. The Magic will be an issue.. Also the sky still hasn't been approached.. Regarding the bit with Alucard, have one of the Leaders confront him about his actions. EDIT: Also have Azauqyar say that he can sense something different about Alucard, as if something has changed. Like an evil aura surrounding him.

Alucard's Trial "He is being brought here right now sir." The crier, a Noivern answered the Lord. The guards outside his room opened the door. "Get moving." Without any further instructions, he moved with them. It seems they were on their way to the training grounds and a large crowd had gathered. Alucard could see the giant Salamence and the Emerald Dragon easily among them. Throughout his journey, not a single sound was heard. He looked into the crowd, trying to spot Ulkina, but to no avail. He did manage to see a Lucario, which he thought was odd, but by then he was brought and placed in front of Azauqyar and Stratos. The Noivern then started, in the loudest voice he could manage. "This spirit, by the name of Alucard, has been brought here today to face justice for his crimes. The charges against him are as follows. Firstly, befriending Lady Ulkina under false pretences of being her brother and hypnotising her. Next, scheming in the murder of our King, Lord Kruga. Next, scheming to take control of the Sky Kingdom by hypnotising Lord Eric. Finally, a charge of intimidation has been filed against him by the Kingdom, on behalf of the witness, Syni the Haunter." All through the narration, Alucard was quiet. He thought these people have all gone mad. It was only when the final charge was brought up that it struck him exactly what had happened. He had been played by Syni. It suddenly became clear to him. The hypnosis, her acts and plotting. All of it became absolutely apparent. All through this he stayed silent, trying to think of a way to expose the truth.

"Considering that the gas is really expensive to make, it means that really wealthy people are involved here, if we assume that there isn't anything supernatural. Could it be that they were bribing the local divisions? We could be dealing with some really dirty bastards here." She was thinking about the possibility of having to deal with corrupt officers while they waited for any updates regarding the video footage. I know I shouldn't cast doubt on the other agencies, but considering that money is involved, and the surprising lack of evidence, all I can suspect is that somebody is trying to keep things clean. Well, we are on the case now and we will uncover the secrets behind the disappearances. "Hey, wait a second. Bom! I know Alph says this is a manufactured gas, but have you ever come across it in the supernatural world? Come take a look at these papers." She picked a few of the papers from before and kept them pointed towards the darkness where Bom had last been.

[Nessie-Gyarados] Nessie was brought up to testify. "Judge, I came to this Kingdom as an envoy of Lord Rain. We are starting a peacekeeping force and needed soldiers and healers. My mission was to recruit any volunteers for the same. When I was granted an audience, I directed my attention to the good Queen Crystal since she is known to support the peace. This offended King Shidew, who then dismissed me and demanded that Lord Rain come personally to meet him. He also gave me a water gem to present to Lord Rain. As if that were not an insult, he said he would not speak with a pacifist group. His behaviour and lack of respect angered me. I admit I threw the crystal at him. Then I stormed out and asked the public to join me. That isn't something that I should have been arrested for, but the King still did so. After that I was brought here." Nessie finished her statement, waiting for the judge to say something else. Water Kingdom "Sire, if I may. There was an incident before Lord Rain came to meet us, rather it was why he came there." The Gyarados explained the entire situation to the King of the Water Kingdom, including the fight with Kruga and the threat to the tribe. "Nessie has asked me to request this of you, though I oppose the idea. She wishes to strike a deal with the Sky Kingdom. They forgive my tribe, and in exchange they can punish her as they see fit. She is going to ask the Magic Kingdom to help facilitate the deal. I believe she intends to give up her life. I request that you send your messenger to the Sky Kingdom and ask them to forgive us and spare her. Her parents had fought in your army. So I can only hope you will try and help her. Thank you for your time and generosity, sire. I will not waste any more of it." The Gyarados knew he was intruding on the King's time but this was his final statement. He left quickly after that. He spoke to the people of the Kingdom and gathered a rather large sized and widely varied group, including a whole bunch of Azumaril, Vaporeon, Clawitzer and Lotad. They all made their way to the Land Kingdom. Overall, it was a successful mission. (The peacekeeping force now has a wide pool of water type pokemon.)

Also Cytan, the Zoroark is one of my characters.. Part of the story.. So that's why.. Anyways, your ditto has been accepted.. Just try not to get into everything with the ditto.. That's all...

Sky Kingdom [syni-Haunter],[ulkina-Latias],[Alucard-Gengar] Syni and Ulkina made their way to the city. By that time everything was quiet. On their way inside, Syni told Ulkina to go on alone. She would go look for Alucard. Ulkina went into the castle. Syni slipped past the guards and made her way to where she was supposed to be kept under protection. Only one guard was there. She asked what had happened. It seemed that the guards had already caught Alucard. Shit, this is going down way too fast. I guess I will have to go see what they are doing. She asked the guard to escort her to the trial. While Ulkina was on her way inside, she realised that the city was very quiet. She asked a nearby guard what had happened. "Well, the mages helped us locate the criminal. We have him captured and he is now being tried at the training ground. We are waiting for the Lord Regent to make his way, after which the trial will commence. You can go and wait with everyone else." At the trial ground, Ulkina met up with Syni. They stood together, not talking. Just waiting. Alucard was in one of the rooms, heavily guarded by four Hydreigon guards. He was thinking over everything, and could not see the reason for his imprisonment. Sure he had some fun earlier but that shouldn't result in this. Nobody was saying anything, and were treating him as if he was a criminal. Then it struck him. Maybe Syni had been caught and they thought he was somehow her accomplice. He would have to prove to them that he wasn't guilty, and maybe even try to help Syni. He wondered what he could do.

Wait till Tyrannt comes and gives you approval for this.. Though I doubt it should be an issue.. I agree with Commander on this..

[Nessie-Gyarados] Nessie was waiting patiently in the jail. She could here the chaos outside, and then it suddenly stopped. She was worried as to what had happened. She didn't want there to be bloodshed. She was here on a peace mission. After a while some guards came and escorted her to a large chamber. It turned out to be a courthouse. There she saw the judge, one of the lake spirits, Uxi. It seemed that she would be having a trial. She waited along with a crowd and the Leaders of the Magic Kingdom. If she was to go back to her tribe this was her only chance.

Hi... Bye... Sanity should be destroyed. Purplle bananas eat red monkies.. I lurvs belu..

Hey welcome! Warcraft was awesome.. Those were the days.. Build shit, destroy shit, build more shit.. Cya..

[syni-Haunter] Syni went back with Ulkina to the castle. All she needed to do was have her little trick play out. Alucard would be killed and the resulting destruction would lead to chaos in the kingdom. I hope they have caught him by now. I don't want to stay here longer then I have to. The more I stay, the riskier it becomes. If Alucard snaps out of the spell and is interrogated he could complicate matters for me. She started speeding up, hoping the Latias would follow. Water Kingdom The Gyarados waited till the King and his advisers had finished their conversation before finding an opening. "Your Highness. Would it be fine if I asked your people to join our mission? Any who volunteer would come with me to the Kingdom of Land to meet with the rest of my clan and Lord Rain. Once I am there, I will inform Lord Rain of your desire to hold a council with the Kings and him." He wanted to get the volunteers first, before making Nessie's personal request. While I don't agree with her thinking, I will not argue. The price for peace has always been the blood of innocents. [Mirage-Zoroark] The crowd turned to the Judge, listening to her words. None wanted to answer her question. Mirage realised that she would have to play some more here before things were to get started. In the disguise of a child she went up to the Uxi. "The King, Lady Judge. He ordered his guard to kill my father. All because my father wanted to listen to the good water lady. She wanted peace, and the King did not. So he jailed her. Even the queen was angry with him, and so were the people. We are tired of the war, tired and scared. The king didn't do anything to stop war, but jailed the nice lady and attacked those who spoke against him. My father was one of those. He was killed." Saying this the sandile "child" broke down into tears. It ran away from the Uxi and into the crowd. Maybe I over did things. Considering the state of the people though, nobody will think twice about it. The pokemon went and hid in the shadows, waiting to see the results of it's mischief.
